This silk mask uses Isesaki Meisen, a silk fabric that Isesaki City in Gunma Prefecture is proud of, for the outer fabric. This vivid textile is a point of coordination.
The lining is made of double-layered gauze fabric, and the 100% silk used for the outer fabric provides high moisture retention. It is not disposable and can be washed and used many times.

Since vintage kimonos are used, stains and dirt are avoided in the production process.

We appreciate your understanding.
What is Meisen?
Isesaki Meisen was a colorful and fashionable everyday wear for Japanese women in the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa eras. The production process involved 14 processes, each of which was the result of the collaboration of craftsmen specializing in that particular process. Today, production is considered impossible due to aging and shrinking markets. Ay was born to weave rare meisen and local culture into the modern age.
